Sleep Patterns

All the good stuff happens while you sleep. If you’re sick, you heal. You reorganize memory, grow taller, resolve conflict and no kidding - process carbs. I’ve been measuring my nightly sleep using a ZEO eeg headband for over 3 years and have almost 1000 nights of sleep data. There is a definite pattern, with much more activity than you’d imagine. It’s ragged with shorter bursts of deep and REM sleep than I thought. I wake up a lot. My brain is pretty busy during sleep -- clearly, sleep rhythms are not so different than waking rhythms. 2010-2012
